The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
For those that don't know about this every friday, an executive from Nintendo of America will answer a single question of ours. Depending on the week, the interviewee will be different, but the answers will always come from one of the following three company bigwigs: VP of sales and marketing Reginald Fils-Aime, VP of corporate affairs Perrin Kaplan or VP of marketing and corporate communications George Harrison.
Today George Harrison ended his little speech with:
"Looking to the future and Revolution, it's still too early to discuss specific strategies, but I can tell you that we have learned much from the launch of the Nintendo GameCube. We realize that things such as having a strong software line-up at launch is critical to the success of Revolution. We understand what kinds of technologies and experiences the market is asking for. You are certainly correct that our financial and creative resources are vast, and we intend to fully flex this muscle more than ever in the coming years. "
I thought I'd post this considering there has been some random assumptions, like Gerrid for example, who have assumed there won't be a strong software line up for the system.

That's the thing. The Gamecube's launch line up was terrible, so they say they intend to change that with a strong line up.
Yet again negative Nintendo fans making pointless assumptions against what the industry is actually say.
There are only one group of people that know less than Nintendo and that is Nintendo fans.

You made assumptions that Nintendo would be too late sending out dev kits for revolution because they might not show it at E3.
You wrote an entire post on how the line up may not contain many decent third party titles.

hahaha! What tosh. They said the same thing after the N64 did p00p compared to the rest.
N64 - Mario 64, WaveRace
GameCube - Luigi Mansion, WaveRace, Rogue Leader
Revolution - Princess Peach's Balarina Tutor (Dance mat <- Nintendo's new fangled control method), WaveRace (better be a new one!!!), and erhh... maybe 1 other good title.
I can't see Nintendo doing anything better than they have done in the past!
I'm preparing myself to be unimpressed, that way, when something half decent comes along I can be excited!
:D
